WARNING: Sorry the following post is going to sound quite egoistic, so try not to read on.

Today, dad was the worship leader, my uncle was the pianist, jean and I were playing violin. As usual, we (anyhow) improvised throughout the worship and even during purely instrumental interludes when it is usually harder to cover up if any accident occurs.

It seemed like a normal day of serving although I felt a slight sense of accomplishment because hardly anything went wrong. Also, the people whom I came into contact to voluntarily gave positive feedback about the music and how it helped them worship better.

But this was what made Jean and I stunned. While having lunch at the hawker centre, one lady (from choir) suddenly came up to Jean and I and wanted to clarify some doubts she and a few others had. She asked us whether our dad was actually using a cd for the worship music just now. As expected, Jean and I stared blankly and then burst into laughter.

I’m glad that it’s been proven once again, that music can enhance worship and bring people into the presence of God.
